Client/Group progress summary	Client states his back pain is gone but reports that his back is a bit tight. He is able to bring his arms overhead and is walking much faster. He's really progressed but not doing the homework at home. His wife had even said that he won't do it at home. I try to encourage him, and he said he will.
Reflection and self-evaluation	FA Always puts a smile on my face.
Final Client/Group Report	After seeing your client/group (for at least 4 sessions including interactive intake) Please remember practicum is a learning experience. You’ll learn more from sharing what’s accurate than from what might “look good”. Things you did well, not so well, problems and questions are all valid and useful tools to teach you. We can’t serve you to become the best clinician you can be if you don’t share your challenges and mistakes. Success is anything from which you learn. You can continue to add Session entries after submitting this Final Client/Group Report.
Plan for next session	continue strengthening and lengthening. continue to working towards moving arms overhead
